sam shackleton - the butcher boy lyrics
[verse 1]
in london town, where i did dwell
a butcher boy, i loved right well
he courted me, my life away
and now with me, he will not stay
[whistling]
[verse 2]
i wish, i wish, i wish in vain
i wish i was a maid again
a maid again ne’er shall i be
till the ivy grows on an apple tree
[verse 3]
i wish, my baby it was born
and smilin’ on her father’s knee
and me poor girl to be dead and gone
with the heather growin’ over me
[whistling]
[verse 4]
well he went upstairs and the door he broke
and he found her hangin’ on a rope
well he took his knife and he cut her doon
and in hеr pocket, these words hе found:
[verse 5]
“well, make my grave large, wide and deep
put a marble stone at my head and my feet
and in the middle, a turtle dove
so the world may know, that i died for love”
[whistling]
